I think I'm tackling more vegetarian meals until the end of April 2014 -- meat maybe once a week (Sundays) or not at all. Seems like I've seen bigger weight loss jumps in weeks with little to no meat. Before I married I was pretty much a vegetarian although I did not eschew meat at home or with friends, family. I was just single and was perfectly content with a meatless baked potato before working out. I'd lost maybe 50lbs using my homespun method of fruit, veggies, whole grains, dairy and daily exercise.
I've been 'dieting' -- for lack of a better term -- for just about 30 days this go 'round. I've also noticed that I don't really miss the meat flavor or actually chewing it. I'll make dinner for the family and eat a small piece of meat last or don't add it at all to the pot...tastes just about the same to me (from the other herbs and seasonings). And I have a very sensitive palate! I think I just feel like I'm missing out when I'm not eating meat with everybody else...I'm not. The more I read on Vegetarianism (and find great recipes), the less I see the value of eating meat.
Don't even ask how I feel about no eggs or cheese. (I love quiche! What can I say?) It's not that I'm a serious animal lover (although I am compassionate). I just want to do what's best for the health of self and family AND it is so difficult to do with such conflicting information, big farm and big grocery out there! Short of growing all my own produce and raising animals...I'm at a loss. #StillFiguringItOut. What's your two cents? Meet me in the FORUM.

Thanks, Puhpine, you are right! I definitely don't want to tank my progress. We eat a lot of beans, nuts and eggs. I've been bringing in tofu once a week or so as well. On a 1200-calorie plan a woman should have 60g protein/daily (and 80g protein/daily on a 1600-calorie plan). I've been falling under that nearly every day by 10g-20g (although better this Apr rather than Mar)! It's been difficult for me to balance the protein/sodium/fat. I'll get there, though.

I feel I'm in the same place you are. Been tackling vegetarianism for 3 months now. I raise my own chickens and eat only those eggs. No meat, no dairy. Miss dairy soooo much.
